I joined LAWL in Nov. of 2004. I was 201 at that time. since then I have gone through 2 job losses of my husbands, thought we were going to move to another state, (even moved all our stuff and then the job fell through and we had to move all our things back.) Now my husband is starting his own business and things are tight. Also I had many ups and downs at my COD, about every 3-4 months they changed the whole staff, and which each new manager and staff they would promise bigger and brighter things. I would get the run around every time I went in. I would see one counsler and they would say, "What are you doing on red you should be on yellow." then I would go in and see someone else and they would say "what are you doing on yellow you should be on red plus" or what ever the colors would always change anyway I can't remember which ones they really put me on. I had signed up for something like 35 weeks plus the 6 weeks plus the 52 of maintanence and through all of this I have let those weeks become inactive, so I lost all that money plus I now weigh 223!
But I got a letter from LAWL last week that said they were having an open house and that weeks were on special for $4/week. so I went in today (all new staff. I didn't know a one of them!) and I paid to restart. Tomorrow I start TO. and will go from there. I told them this morning, THIS IS IT. IT HAS TO WORK THIS TIME. So that is my story. I hope to gain much strength and inspiration here and look forward to losing this weight once and for all!
